Look what showed up in the mail today! Yay, @admiralbuck.bsky.social. Sorry for my bad pictures of the magazine, but these are amazing models, and Bill always photographs his models so well.

"And There Will Come Soft Rains..." I first read this Ray Bradbury story in about 7th grade and it has stayed with me ever since. Written in 1950, it takes place *today*, August 4, 2026. If you've never read it, or have not read it in a while, its about a 5 minute read.
A great golf clap to @daytonward.bsky.social . I'm reading his engaging new "To Defy Fate" and this line appears as a character is referring to the events of DISCO season 5.

Sure seems like the "Don't Tread on Me" folks are plenty happy when those currently in power tread on anyone else.
